Despite seemingly having played with, and reputedly fallen out with, an illustrious list of hard rock’s best and brightest since he first left his brother in the nascent Scorpions to join UFO – the band with whom he and his trademark Flying V first made their mark of course – Michael Schenker retains plentiful reserves of affection among his fellow metalheads.
Last year’s album with the re-formed Michael Schenker Group, My Years With UFO, featured guest spots from Axl Rose, Slash, Biff Byford, Joey Tempest, Dee Snider and Carmine Appice, among others, as he revisited songs from his several stints with the venerable British rock institution. Another guest, former Skid Row man Erik Grönwall, has remained in place for Schenker’s latest album, Don’t Sell Your Soul.
